Hey guys, I just started collecting in December, so I don't have much, but, I finally got my shelves organized enough to have them look like a display!

I have a lot of loose ends like random Armada, Cybertron, and Energon figures that really didn't have a place with the "mostly classics" displays, so I left them out, but, hopefully when I move in July I can have a "random case" or something, haha.

but anyways, like I said, not too much, but I'm happy with what I've got so far:

Well, I've always liked TFs. I grew up on them... over the past decade or so, I'd picked up one or two here and there. I guess, it's just around December of last year, I was out and about shopping for people's gifts, and I saw the Generations figures. I bought Prime. Then I took Cybertron Prime out of some boxes, and put him on a shelf... then I took out Cybertron Megatron... from there, I was like, you know what, I've always wanted Cybertron Galvatron...

From there, I started searching ebay, and google to see if I could find a deal, and for some reason, my search actually pulled up a member here's B/S/T thread on "The other" site (Nemesis251, who's AWESOME). From there, I became a member, he gave me an awesome deal, and, it just became an addiction... I was at a point where I'd gotten a career type job, me and the Mrs. were shacked up, and I just plain had extra money to spend. From there, I found out about this site, started getting more deals here and there, and all of a sudden I realized most of what I was buying were Classics figures, so I said fuck it, and started just looking up the classics listings and buying them all.

I joined at a good time too, because in January, RobotKingdom had their re-release of the City Commander sets. I got that, and protector armor from there, and once I put it together, I was fucking hooked. From there, I had DIA Commander and Shadow within like 2 flippin' weeks. From there, I was like, "Man, I sure wish I had the prime molds to display OUTSIDE of armor as well"... so, I got duplicates of those... and then Magnus came with skywarp, and I was like, "Wow, this mold's really cool" and bought the two starscream versions and acid storm... and from there, I got the conehead seekers.

It's really this odd "chain of events" that keeps happening... like something about a figure/mold will lead me to buying another one, and then that one will make me buy another... and it keeps going and going.

Wow, just read your "Why I started collecting" and I went through almost exactly the same thing. I haven't gotten my collection all photographed and up here but our collections are very similar. You have a bit more than me though. I also don;t have mine all displayed due to lack of space.

Idea for your Bruticus/Nexus Variant there.
Get a knock off downsized Defensor off ebay. maybe $12 to $20 with shipping and use the chest plate. Make Heatwave's back his chest first. Find yourself a 5mm peg, glue it on in the correct place on the back f the chest plate and there you go. It'll plug right into the hole on his chest. Think it would look good with that crossfire kit, the 2 most recent FP figures and Heatwave as the torso.
Here's what I have using the 1st Crossfire kit. (bought 2 when it came out).
If I ever do get a second Crossfire2 kit along with the TFCC Topspin, I'm thinking air brushing the kit peices black would work well. Anyway just what I really want to do and seeing your collection makes me REALLY want to now!

Update: As soon as I posted this I went on ebay and bid on a set of both...HA! Fingers crossed....1) that I win the auction and 2) that it is at a lower price than my max bid!
